These fairies want me to deal with them every day.

"We have to think of a way. Sending in too few people is pointless. If we keep wasting resources like this, I'm afraid the Azure Sect won't be able to hold out for long..."

The siege was visibly ongoing, only pausing slightly that night.

While Ran Xinxue was engaged in heated discussions with many important figures.

A figure lifted the curtain and walked in.

"Breaking the deadlock... isn't that difficult."

Everyone looked over and saw a man with gray hair but a vigorous spirit walk in.

The rest of the people present were stunned for a moment before they stood up in a panic.

"Sect Master Huang!"

The visitor was none other than Huang Shang, the sect leader of Lu Chen Sect.

This man did not come with the group; he is said to be in seclusion. Many people speculate that he may be protecting his reputation and is showing his selfish side at this time, only thinking about his own interests.

But when he appeared, many people seemed to feel reassured.

"Sect Leader Huang, you've emerged from seclusion?"

Ran Xinxue watched as Huang Shang appeared.

Huang Shang nodded, his aura becoming even more profound and restrained. In just a few steps, his sleeves fluttered with a powerful momentum despite the lack of wind.

Huang Shang nodded.

"I have no reason not to be there when something like this happens. Should I be helping the Azure Sect now?"

Ran Xinxue nodded solemnly.

“That’s right, but there are quite a few people deployed in the shadows… and the situation at Yihua Palace is very strange. Those who are not strong enough might just be throwing their lives away. Those who are strong… might be a trap.”

Huang Shang shook his head and said.

"In the face of absolute power, traps are nothing but illusions."

"You wouldn't be thinking of..."

“I can pave the way for you, tearing open an opening so you can take advantage of the chaos to get in, while sending some people to distract their reinforcements. Together with the remaining members of the Azure Faction, we can launch a counterattack.”

Ran Xinxue thought for a moment and said.

“This suggestion is indeed good… but Sect Leader Huang, if it’s just you alone… I’m still afraid there might be unexpected events. Moreover, Palace Master Li Yaoshan of Yihua Palace has not yet offered himself up. They must have come prepared, and his strength cannot be ignored.”

Huang Shang had not yet spoken.

The curtain was lifted again, and another footstep appeared.

This time, he appeared to be a rather thin figure with a very noticeable goatee, which seemed to be his trademark.

"And me too."

He said calmly.

Who is this?

Ran Xinxue squinted at the other man who entered, clearly unaware of who he was or how he got there.

Huang Shang gave Ran Xinxue a very simple answer.

"The Lord of Lin Yuan City is Xun Huai."

“Miss Bai…the recent movements in the Northern Desert and the Northern Xuan Prefecture have been quite strange…”

On the summit of North Lion Mountain, Xiao Ziyi looked at the graceful figure standing quietly on the edge of the cliff not far away, seemingly lost in thought, and said this.

This woman was very young, and it wouldn't be surprising to call her a teenage girl, but the intelligence and courage she displayed during this period of time impressed many people.

However, few people know that this woman would occasionally come to this hilltop and gaze southward, as if she were thinking of something.

Are they geese flying south?

Bai Youwei withdrew her gaze. She knew that looking in one direction didn't actually allow her to see the person in that direction.

But some feelings always need an outlet to be relieved.

She just hoped... if the other person was looking in the same direction she was looking, perhaps the wind would know.

However, she quickly suppressed these thoughts, because there were more important things to do now.

"Hmm... Someone has told me about these things."

"Is that so... then what do you think, Miss Bai?"

Xiao Ziyi asked, frowning.

They had been stuck at North Lion Mountain for a long time, but they still didn't know what this woman's intentions were, or what kind of success she wanted to lead them to. Perhaps... it wasn't the direction they hoped for at all, but they still wanted an answer.

Bai Youwei said.

"Now it's Beixuan Prefecture that has begun their actions... Their target is other immortal continents. They'll only lower their guard against us."

"Should we go back to Beixuan Prefecture?"

Xiao Ziyi seemed eager to get started, as many people in Beixuan Prefecture held a strong attachment to the region.

Their dream was to proudly march back into Beixuan Prefecture, secure a place there, and then transform themselves into someone of high status.

But the woman's eyes were shining as she stared straight at him as she spoke.

"I'm not going to Beixuan Prefecture."

"Where to?"

"Go to the Northern Desert."

"We're already in the Northern Desert!"

"Not north enough, we need to... enter the Demon Realm, completely enter the Demon Realm."

Xiao Ziyi stared blankly at the woman whose gaze had suddenly turned strange.

That look in his eyes contained both obsession and an undisguised excitement.

What is she expecting? What is she planning to do?

Under Xiao Ziyi's almost blank gaze, Bai Youwei took a step and walked past Xiao Ziyi.

A fragrant breeze wafted by.

She left behind a short message.

"The greater the adventure, the greater the reward. Is becoming the lord of a city in Beixuan Prefecture what you desire? I don't think so."

She wants to turn the entire Demon Realm upside down.

123 East China Sea

The year recorded in historical books is the year of Xianzhou.

Smoke signals rose everywhere.

The invasion of Beixuan Prefecture is certainly recorded in history, and it also records how other cultivators, who were suffering greatly at the time, rose up in resistance.

The battle of the Azure Faction.

The army of the Yihua Palace is pressing in.

Countless powerful cultivators filed in.

What seemed like an overwhelming momentum was actually stubbornly resisted by the Azure Sect, and was delayed for half a month.

And their resistance was worthwhile.

Those who went forward one after another, each using their own flesh and blood, did everything in their power to resist the enemy's invasion.

Before this vast mountain gate, corpses piled up like mountains.

The arrival of Huang Shang and Xun Huai finally disrupted everything, allowing the Cangqing Sect to escape from dire straits.

"As expected, it's Southern Sword Prefecture... Huang Chang and Xun Huai are here too. And that damned Yuanjian Sect... Palace Master, what should we do?"

Ji Xiangwan stood beside a carriage and spoke in a low voice.

The curtain beside the carriage was slightly fluttering in the wind, and a red figure could be faintly seen inside. It was hard to imagine that such a bright color would appear under such circumstances.

But unfortunately, there wasn't a woman inside.

It was a man's calm voice.

"This was expected, but it's alright. We're just trying to ensure everything in Beixuan Prefecture goes smoothly. Let them cause trouble for a while."

"Yes……"

Ji Xiangwan looked towards the hilltop where the fierce battle was taking place. The Cangqing Sect had indeed gained a foothold, and she could see many familiar figures among the intertwined ones.

However, Ji Xiangwan frowned.

"By the way, Palace Master... there's something that's bothering me."

"explain."

"That guy surnamed Wei... I didn't see him."

There was a moment of silence inside.

"Wei Tu?"

Ji Xiangwan nodded. "He should be here at a time like this, but he isn't... If he's not here, where else could he be?"

But the man inside said...

“You care too much about this person. In this situation… no one can easily change the situation. He’s not here… he can be anywhere, do anything, but doing anything won’t change the situation, no matter what level he’s at now. You should understand that.”

The man's words inside seemed to reassure Ji Xiangwan a little.

But... is that really the case?

Ji Xiangwan was unaware of this; he was simply looking at the flames burning high in the distance.

And the smoke drifting over there.
